I just saw this film this evening and confess I couldn't watch certain parts, although I heard them.
If one truly believes, there is nothing to be afraid of in this film. Finally, someone in the medium took a serious stab (no pun intended) at this subject and make it work to the point where you sit in that theater and wonder how any parent could watch their child endure that. It was literally like being a spectator.
BTW, my bishop was very much looking forward to seeing this film. He is a very sincere and good man. Very orthodox, too.

Didn't Mel Gibson's depiction of Herod's court bear an uncanny resemblance to the Clinton Whitehouse?

Glad you got to see the movie. Wasn't the scene with Mary and Mary Magdalene mopping up the blood just heart-wrenching?
